This seasons Barclays Premier League is entering into a dramatic finale and is making us stand on the edge of our seats and the race is on for the title and who will come out glorious with pride and who will fold under the pressure? Lets find out
The Current standings in the barclays table
So the table stands like this after so much edge of the seats action and as the title rice enters its dramatic finale lets have a look at the road ahead for the teams and also for the fans.
Manchester City
They were told title favorites from the beginning and now they are the team that are looking like winning the title and getting all the glory at the end of it.They have trashed almost all teams at the home ground by huge margins but the test comes in the away matches where they have struggled a little. If Pellegrini can avoid any stumbles in the defence they can easily win the league ahead of their competitors.They are having one of the dangerous attacks with Negredo , Aguero and Jovetic accompanied by Silva , Nasri and Toure which is the main reason for their current success !If they win all the matches ahead there is no stopping them as they will have more points than every other team.
Their Best Performance:7-0 win in home against Norwich City.

One of the main reasons why man city have gotten past some crucial matches and stubborn tests is due to this man 'YAYA TOURE'.The opposition are fearing to give away free kicks keeping this man in mind which has also helped the attackers with some free movements.He has bettered his goal scoring record already and he has scored goals when the team need it the most.If he continues to perform till the end of the season Man City can surely win the title.
Liverpool
One of the surprise package for the title,Brendan Rodgers and his men have showed everyone that they have what it takes to challenge for the title and move their record to 19 titles.Rodgers has let go of his possession tactic and used the full flow attacking strength of Liverpool to rip apart even quality opposition.The only area they are found wanting is the defence where the defenders are exposed to pace a little too often and also make unnecessary mistakes when there is no need to.In the end it may be the very thing that costs them the title.
Their Best Performance:5-1 win against arsenal at home.This win came at the back of a 7 match unbeaten run and this showed their true power of winning against big teams.

SAS on the scene again!!! Suarez and Sturridge are one of the main reasons for the position that Liverpool are in now.These two have formed a great deadly pacey strike partnership and also can complement each other well.With countinho and sterling on their backs they just made fun of scoring goals.They have also scored the most number of goals by a team this season.If they continue this liverpool may find themselves with premier league medals on their necks.But I still personally think they will finish in second place just behind man city.
Chelsea
Chelsea were looking as favourites to land the title but some shock defeats has left them adrift and even though they got back to winning ways they now need to depend on other results to go their way and need to win almost all of their remaining games to land the title.Football is a funny game where extraordinary things have happened in the past so can chelsea produce yet another one of those moments.We shall have to wait and see.
Their Best Performance:1-0 win over league leaders Man City.The blues showed real defence work and each one gave it his all.They were tactically perfect as one should be to stop the likes of aguero Dzeko etc...
Chelsea-Ivanovic
Their Worst Performace:1-0 defeat against Aston villa.The league leaders, who had a first-half goal ruled out for handball, were reduced to 10 men when Willian was shown a second yellow card.And Villa made the extra man count as Fabian Delph finished Marc Albrighton's low cross with a superb back-heel.Ramires and Mourinho were then both ordered off in a bad-tempered finale.
One of the revelation of this season is Eden Hazard.Dubbed as the next ronaldo hazard has provided great support and overshowed the absence of goals from the strikers.He has also provided with some extraordinary passes to his teammates.In the absence of Mata , his and Oscar's creative skills are helping them to earn a lot. His red hot form must continue if Chelsea have any chance if winning the league.
Arsenal
Being dubbed as title favorites and now struggling to finish in the top four this has been the story of arsenal for the past few years.Their lack of consistency and no back up for Giroud has come back to haunt then yet again.Their record signing Mesut Ozil has not performed upto the expectations and giroud has looked a tired figure in the recent matches.They need to step up their game if they need to finish in the top four of the league ahead of Everton.
Their Best Performance:2-0 win over Liverpool.This game began as a meeting between the top two sides in the table and Arsenal showed resilience and quality to maintain their fine start to the season and stretch their advantage after Chelsea's surprise loss at Newcastle United.Santi Cazorla gave Arsenal the lead with a fine first-half strike after his header struck the post and Aaron Ramsey scored his 10th goal of this campaign with a spectacular long-range effort on the hour.
Arsenal-Santi Cazorla,Aaron Ramsey
Their Worst performance:6-0 against chelsea.Arsenal were bitterly wounded humiliated trashed by a free flowing chelsea and ended up losing 6-0.This was also Wenger's 1000 game in charge certainly not how the arsenal boss would have wanted it to end.
Chelsea-
The only spark to arsenal recent match form dip has been Santi Cazorla. He has stepped up his game when Ozil was not available and has delivered.He needs to maintain this form if arsenal need to finish in the top four.The only thing that trigged their title hopes was their one-twos which resulted in many goals for them. They need the same instinctive with some clinical finishing to hold on to their hopes.
Everton
Everton have been a surprise revelation after the arrival of Roberto Martinez who has been tactically the best and outsmarted most of the others.They have been solid and have had many guys who have produced the goods when needed.They have a difficult fixture list coming up and need to produce some great results to finish above arsenal in the fourth position.
One of the main reasons for the stunning performance of Everton is the contribution of these two players.They have delivered when the team needed most and Lukaku is everton's top scorer this season.They need to produce some more magic to make Everton qualify for the Champions League.
SO ALL THE ACTION IS SET TO UNFOLD IN THE FORTHCOMING DAYS.LETS WAIT AND WATCH !!!!
